Abstract

Provided is a method, system, and computer program product for managing requests received by a storage system. The method may include detecting, by one or more processors, a failure in a first storage system in response to a request to access data in the first storage system. The first storage system may include a primary storage for storing the data. A second storage system may be activated in response to the detected failure. The second storage system may include a first storage and a second storage. The first storage may include data synchronized with the primary storage of the first storage system. The second storage may be used to store data that corresponds to the request. The request may be managed using the second storage system.
